A stick would make it more effecient and fun. But that auto sounds like a great deal.

 

I'm thinking mega viper time!

 

i think the big thing would just be getting the swap done then you can work on other thing like sticking a standard transmission in there.

 

Auto was picked for simplicity.. I didnt want to add more to the project by adding an extra pedal, drilling under the cup holders for the shifter, and setting up the clutch assembly

I was also worried about finding a used nv4500 that has had the 5th gear nut fix.. most were 2-3 times more than what I paid for the built auto anyhow- got some pics ill throw on in a minute!'

Sweet project Mooch! I can't wait to do my 6BT swap. Ill be keeping an eye on this one...

 

I wanna do this sooo bad. I'm so jealous. Good luck with the swap and keep the pics coming.

 

I've been tossing around the idea of a 4bt in my '95 for a while... I could just change my input shaft...

 

Feels like the project moved quick to this point but will be slow for a while. Motor mounts, fuel lines, and getting the driveshafts shortened/lengthened.
